Overview

The Warwickshire Education Strategy (2018-2023) is driven by the County Council’s One Organisational Plan 2020 and sets out an overarching vision for education in Warwickshire. The main aim of the strategy is to improve educational outcomes, and therefore the life chances, of learners of all ages in Warwickshire.

Purpose

  • summarise our aspirations and priorities for education in Warwickshire
  • explain how the council will work with partners to achieve these
  • bring together the work of different teams with partners so that services are more joined-up
  • continue to improve education quality and learner outcomes at a time of financial challenge
  • support innovation through creative and inspiring partnership working

Priorities

  • Early Years: Our challenge is to foster children’s love of learning from birth through early childhood and into Year 1 so that all young children achieve their potential.
  • SEND & Inclusion: Our challenge is to provide an inclusive education for all children and young people within Warwickshire with a particular focus on vulnerable groups
  • Family of Schools: Our challenge is for all learners to enjoy a high-quality learning experience.
  • Employability: Our challenge is to champion employability by promoting the best opportunities for all learners.

Related Strategies

Several sub strategies have been produced to outline focussed programmes of work for the delivery of the strategy’s priorities. Whilst some priorities do not have a specific sub strategy associated to it, those areas are considered no less of a priority, instead its objectives are interlinked across existing programmes of work and are implemented through their own delivery plans.
